Post Description

Toronto based singer and Melissa Lauren has smoothly made the transition from veteran swing “crooness” to songwriter.  With a strong influence in jazz and blues, Melissa has developed an original style of her own melting together old school sounds with modern flare. Having recently wrapped up her latest recording project, she has released her sophomore album  "Your Mess" on October 27th on iTunes. 
The singer’s love for swing and jazz music began when she started performing with the Toronto All-Star Big Band; she continued singing with them until 2004. She had the opportunity to work with and open for many wonderful musicians; Jeff Healey, Gordon Lightfoot, Renee Lee, Henry Questa, Tommy Ambrose, Peter Appleyard, Buddy DiFranco, Jackie Richardson, and Clark Terry to name a few.   She has performed as part of the Toronto Downtown Jazz Festival, Beaches International Jazz Festival, Markham Jazz Festival and Oakville International Jazz Festival as well as Canadian Music Week. She has toured Western Canada several times,  and has a new tour in the making of Canada and Europe in November 2015.
